About Paralimni

Learn more about the host city, Paralimni.

The traditional town of Paralimni is the largest town in the free Famagusta district, located approximately 40 minutes drive from Larnaca airport. Its town square has many good shops , restaurants, cafes, bars and three churches, the oldest of which houses a museum. Just beyond the square are beautiful gardens and fountains with an open air theatre. Retaining much of its old charm with local crafts, souvenir shops and picturesque narrow streets, it is not unusual to come across fishermen quietly mending their nets in the shade of the vine-covered courtyards. A regular bus service runs along the coast from Paralimni to Protaras and then on to Ayia Napa.
